The last few Prime Ministers have just been an increasingly long chain of “well, at least they can’t be worse than the last dude” and fate going “ask and ye shall receive, motherfucker.”

Love to live in a country with a president who still has a hint of humanity. Love to see the international backlash against him pretty much saying "I don't think soldiers killing women and children is something I'd call a war". Actually I think if a country with a history of diplomatic neutrality says a situation is fucked up that means more (and more powerful) countries should've been saying this already

I will never get over the gag of the prime minister introducing herself to everyone it’s so funny

Omne tempus Clodios, non omne Catones feret….Eleganter itaque ab Epicuro dictum puto: “potest nocenti contingere, ut lateat, latendi fides non potest,” aut si hoc modo melius hunc explicari posse iudicas sensum: “ideo non prodest latere peccantibus, quia latendi etiam si felicitatem habent, fiduciam non habent.” Ita est: tuta scelera esse possunt, secura esse non possunt.

- Seneca

Every generation produces a Clodius, but every one doesn’t make a Cato….So, I think that Epicurus put it well that “It’s possible for a guilty person to hide, but it’s impossible to trust the hiding.” Or, if you think it is better to convey the sense in this way: “There’s no advantage for people who screw up to hide because even if that have the good luck, there’s no promise of staying hidden.” I mean this: crimes can be safeguarded, but they can never be secure.”

I think we should hunt every prime minister since at least hawke for sport. possibly going back to whitlam. potentially every prime minister but whitlam.

In less than a week the Portuguese President offended two entire nations by saying the most misguided and uninformed thing he could at the time; the Prime Minister resigned himself after he fell under suspicion of stealing lithium; there's a medical scandal revolved around wasting money on useless drugs; and the next prime minister elected might potentially be a fascist fuck who's extremely xenophobic, homophobic and transphobic...

Every day I wake up and the world is a little more on fire.

the only thing that makes me wish (pray?) for divine intervention is shitty people getting into power

for a long time i had a fantasy of Trump bursting into flames from the inside during a rally

i would imagine Boris Johnson getting struck by lightning or mauled by an angelic beast

and now i want nothing more than for the Lady of the Lake to emerge during the coronation ceremony today and throw Excalibur through King Charles’ head

so yeah, like to charge reblog to cast

Britain's last four prime ministers as dodgy AI projects.

Before the ink was dry on that cartoon, one of them made the news in a "Friday night dump".

Boris Johnson resigned his seat in the House of Commons with immediate effect.

I think citizenship tests are a little ridiculous. I'm a Swedish citizen and I don't even know who the prime minister is

[empress-leo]

Having just remembered that the Minister for Magic meets with the Muggle Prime Minister, you have to wonder if Liz Truss was in the office long enough for them to meet with her, or if 50 days was too short for them to organise a meeting.

Alternatively, you have to wonder if Hermione (because she’s the canonical current Minister for magic) said something like “Wasn’t expecting to be back here so soon” when she met with Rishi Sunak.
